Purpurfarben, dezentes Bukett nach dunklen Früchten (Blaubeere), am Gaumen schlank, jedoch mit gutem Grip, Tannine harmonisch eingebunden, Frucht eher im Hintergrund, mineralische Noten, schöner Trinkfluß, mittellanger Abgang, leicht gekühlt trinken.

Lots of dark fruits on the nose, fragrant and light. Relatively low on acidity, firm tannins that are surprisingly rounded, very smooth mouthfeel. Cherries tobacco and cedar. Decent finish.
Drink.

This is much lighter bodied and delicate. Lots of earthy smoky flavors here with some dusty fruits. Finish is short and uninspiring.
Maybe Argentinian Malbec is biasing me, but I don’t think this is that good of a wine. Interesting for being a Malbec from France, but that’s about it.

Dark ruby. Fragrant nose with dark fruit, earthy and mineral with some light spicy notes. Fresh in the mid palate with soft to medium tannins, dusty with balancing acidity. Dark fruit leading to medium finish with dried herbs and cocoa bean nuances.

Awful. Harsh and abrasive. Undrinkable.

Decanted two hours. Wouldn’t buy again.

Cerise, belle couleur. Peu de longueur. Un vin de copains.

Earthy nose has essence of smoke and coffee; body is light to medium; taste is bone dry with a lasting finish.
